Tomorrow Night at BLKG

**Remember the meeting start time has been changed to 6:30. Knit Doctor is still available before the meeting starts.First thing tomorrow night will be Election of Officers. In the November newsletter Beth sent out last week there is a page with bios of the candidates. The only contested race is Treasurer so do a little homework, then come to the meeting to cast your ballot.After the voting BLKG is happy to welcome Melissa of The
Green Yarn Company.Andy says she first became aware of Melissa and Carmenat the Spin-In in Waukesha, and was drawn in by their “recycle, reuse, reclaim, re-purpose” businesspractices. Come and see all the methods Melissa and
Carmen have come upwith to help us affordably increaseour stash and beautify our projects.

The Ladies Behind the Green Yarn Company
It all started with two friends sitting on a porch drinking wine. Our
business was born as a stumble upon of some great ideas two half-drunk
women had. To some our concept sounded downright insane, and it still
does. But the two of us are anything but normal. If you have read any of
our social media, blog, or talked to either of us you can probably come to
that conclusion on your own. But don't worry we aren't insane in a creepy
unstable way, more of a fun crazy.....
We love yarn, we love fiber. We love to crochet and spin and knit, and be
crafty and imaginative. We strive to put out a quality product at an
affordable price and to help educate people and help them find what they
want if we can, and sometimes it is not in our booth or our store and we are
OK with that. The bottom line is, we want you to be happy and satisfied
and we know that you will remember that and next time you are looking to
buy something you will remember how helpful we were.Come join us at 6:30 (new meeting time) for a little Guild business and a whole lot of yarn fun!
